I will never support mandatory voting. We would end up in worse shape not better. If anyone thinks Trump is the worst President? Oh we can do worse -- nm - Bacon Oct 18, 16:14 1
- I really believe the only reason he's not Kim jong Un, putin, hitler, sadam, is that we still have a few believers in the constitution and pesky rules -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 18, 16:24
If voting is mandatory, we have the 7% of people that think chocolate milk comes from brown cows voting. - Strongbad Oct 18, 16:14 8

  - Well instead of half or 4/5ths of them voting all 7% would be. Yeah us! - Bacon Oct 18, 16:16 6
    - and they're swamped by the remainder of the 93%. -- nm - Reagen Oct 18, 16:18 5

        I'm not picking and choosing, is the point. - Reagen Oct 18, 16:22 2
        
        I don't want mandatory voting. If people don't WANT to vote, I would just assume the do not vote. - Bacon Oct 18, 16:27 1
        
        Regarding the IM: That's what I want, too. No more gerrymandering, no more state-sponsored voter suppression. - Beryllium Oct 18, 16:50
